IBM Rational Named “Software Testing Solutions Champion”

As our need to deliver software faster and meet market
demands has increased, something usually has to be cut.The old adage says that you can only deliver against
2 of the 3 mandates (cost, time frame, quality), so choose which one won’t
happen. However, that is no longer an acceptable answer.As an increasing number of organizations are
going “agile”, quality concerns are being raised yet again.But being “agile” does not have to mean
sacrificing quality.As a matter of fact,
with agility can come

increased quality as more people are testing the software more frequently. Stricter
rules about exit criteria from one sprint to another and the overall pressure from
users who want it now and working properly or they will use something else has
made delivering quality software more important than ever.

Because of this elevated pressure for software of higher
quality, IBM Rational software continues to increase their investment in
helping organizations improve the quality of their software deliveries and the
results are showing. IBM Rational was
named “Software Testing Solutions
Champion” by Info-Tech Research Group in their February 2013 Vendor
Landscape on Software Testing Solutions.
The report goes on to say that “IBM offers a comprehensive suite of products
aimed at testing the most demanding and complex apps.” As well as “IBM offers the strongest testing product in this landscape.” This is truly a sign that the IBM
investment is paying off.

In 2012, IBM Rational acquired Green Hat and quickly
integrated their technology with other software quality solutions. This
resulted in the announcement of IBM Rational Test Workbench providing service virtualization capabilities combined with functional, performance and
integration testing in a single workbench solution. IBM Rational Test Workbench in combination with IBM Rational Quality Manager provides a complete solution for software
quality.
